I'm swimming to help raise awareness about youth suicide
- This is my first year diving
- in for youth mental health
Suicide is the leading cause of death for young Australians. That means that each year more young people die by suicide than in car accidents or from cancer.
In a wealthy nation that prides itself on lifestyle, mate-ship and self determination this is unacceptable and has to change. Mental health facilities are getting better, but considering how prosperous we are, things could and should improve! No young person should take their own life because they can't access support or find help in any modern, compassionate and "advanced" society. Being human can be tough and young people struggle, just as we all do from time to time and any small contribution will go towards making a huge difference to those who really need it.
I'd encourage anyone to make a donation, whether it be the price of a cappucino or perhaps even a little more. Whatever you can contribute to this cause will be forever appreciated by another young Australian who'll be able to seek the help they need!
Thankyou so very much x
